The exploration and reasoning here is like a detailed report on a science experiment. I liked the layout of the presentation from noticing an incongruity to explaining exactly what was happening. Then the video surprised me by putting forth a hypothesis on why the 'world' was the way it was.
It has benefits over real-world experimentation because the fundamentals of the system are known and everything can be observed. No messy approximations are needed. Most guesses can be confirmed. But then we still end up with an unconfirmed hypothesis about how the situation came up in the first place. Reasoning is presented but there's no way to confirm it beyond asking...the creators.
The tooling used to recreate certain game situations is like a magical testing apparatus that doesn't really exist in the real world.
